Three websites for three different Wii titles were sighted on the net signalling the start of the Wii Open Season. The game sites are for Wing Island, Kororinpa and Ennichi no Tatsujin.

Wing Island
from Hudson Soft features a bi-plane controlled by the Wiimote. The player flies the plane by tilting the remote horizontally to turn and vertically to go make it fly higher or lower. By flicking the Wiimote two times to the side, the gamer sends his virtual plane to do a barrel-roll.

Kororinpa, a Marble Madness-type game also from Hudson that uses the Wiimote to gyrate the surface of the playing area to guide a ball to its goal. Set for a December release in Japan, rumors have it  the game will not be elsewhere.

Ennichi no Tatsujin from Namco Bandai is the next-gen version of Taiko Drummaster series. It is a package of mini-games that include shooting, fishing, and other games often seen in fairs. We're not really sure how the Wiimote is used in the gameplay but it does look like a Japan-only title.

European Kororinpa

Is it to be taken serious that Europe and America will not see Kororinpa? Has there been released any additional information on the subject? Do I really have to learn Japanese to play this title :S Well, it'll be worth it :D This game just looks amazing, dang it.
